Labor Day

Aptly named. Not, "Rest Day". Not "Take it Easy Day." No, it's work your tail off because summer is over and all those projects you meant to get to -- it's now or never.

What I did today:

1. Felted sweaters I bought at Salvation Army for a project yet to be revealed.

2. Cleaned the room where the cats sleep. And eat. And poop. Need I say more?

3. Legal work. Yes, files. Those nasty NY State Law Guardian vouchers that now have to be completed within 90 days of the case being closed, and which those of us with little or no staff support can never seem to get to.

4. Made Indian food. Yum. (Okay, so that's not a summer project.)

5. Filled 4 bags of clothes for donation. Mine, his, and the twins. Drop off is tomorrow.

6. Washed the quilt and hung it out to dry. I hope. Rain is forecast.

7. Opened a Corona. Maybe another :).

8. Dreaded going into the office tomorrow -- a full week of Court. Two, count them two, trials. Ugh.

9. Downloaded the rest of the vacation photos, leading to ...

10. My favorite lawyer joke: Why don't sharks eat lawyers?



Why, professional courtesy, of course!

(Shark photo from the North Carolina aquarium -- Pine Knoll Shores, NC) We bonded.

I refused to work today. Got done yesterday what absolutely had to be done before court tomorrow. The rest can wait for tomorrow afternoon.

I refused to work today too. On work. I did knit all weekend on an unfinished cardigan.

So will you be watching Shark w/James Woods in the fall?
